This beautiful challah cover from the Gallery Alexander
collection is made from terylene fabric. The challah cover is decorated with
two candlesticks with lit candles with sheaves of wheat and flowers. The Hebrew
words “Likavod Shabbat V’Yom Tov”, which means “In honor of Shabbat and Yom
Tov”, are embroidered on the side of the image.
The challah cover is
one of the few traditional and distinct table setting items that characterizes a
set Shabbat and Jewish holiday table. The challah cover, as its name suggests,
is used to cover the challahs while the Kiddush is being recited. A special
designed challah cover adds glory to the Shabbat and holiday table.
